Let's Talk Product!: Brand Name Sunscreens for Common Skincare & Aesthetic Concerns

A New Entry for the Let's Talk Product Course Series Has Just Launched!

We are very excited to announce this course as the latest addition to our Let’s Talk Product series. Contrast to how topicals were previously discussed in past courses, these courses will instead provide a full and open discussion as to what specific brand name topical products exemplify those concepts and information discussed in other courses on the site. 

Unsure of which brand name sunscreens to consider for your patients? Don't be!...

This course explores what to look for in sunscreens for various skincare and aesthetic concerns, as well as a wide range of example brand name sunscreens fitting those criteria. 

Individualize your sunscreen recommendation for:

• Signs of Skin Aging
• Hyperpigmentation concerns (ex. melasma, age spots, uneven skin, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation)
• Acne (according to common presentations like comedonal and oily skin)
• Rosacea 
• Sensitive skin

Become familiar with brand name sunscreens categorized by being:

• Clear/transparent on application
• Antioxidant-enriched
• Skin barrier supportive
• Clean and/or Green in manufacturing process
• Sun-protective lip balms
• After Sun topicals

What this course adds to your clinical repertoire...

This course is an excellent way to familiarize yourself with many of the common brand name sunscreen products on the market, while learning how to individualize recommendations according to clinical or aesthetic needs. Our goal is to provide you with a product-focused starting point from which you can then continue to confidently create and build your own set of sunscreen recommendations to help support your patient population. 

This course was designed as both a stand-alone course as well as a sister course to the Sun Protection: From Topicals to Drinks from the Tropics course. Although it’s not required, it is recommended to first take the sister course ahead of this one as it will provide for more depth, clinical details, and research surrounding most of the topical products and cosmeceutical ingredients discussed in this course.
